- Add infrastructure for built-in functions to hint whether they
return by reference or not. It is NOT currently used for anything,
except for interface prototypes (you can use it to request that the
function that implements your prototype returns by reference or
doesn't return by reference).
For downwards compatibility - by default, interface prototypes are
agnostic as to whether the function that implements them returns
by reference or not. Use ZEND_BEGIN_ARG_INFO_EX() with
ZEND_RETURN_VALUE/ZEND_RETURN_REFERENCE to change that.
- Fix ArrayAccess::getOffset() to conduct additional checks.
If your getOffset() should work with multidimensional arrays - it
must return by reference.
Note that this is available for downwards compatibility only - and it doesn't
work if you use new features (namely, interfaces). Generally, people should
declare their classes before using them, but we just didn't want hell to break
loose (c)
__clone() is back to not requiring any arguments, as $that is no longer
needed ($this already contains a copy of the original object, by the time
we __clone() is executed).
Calling the parent clone is done using parent::__clone()
implementation, and allows exceptions to 'fire' much earlier than before.
Instructions on how to use the new mechanism will follow on internals@
shortly...
Note - this (most probably) breaks the current implementation of
set_exception_handler()
implementation.
Using clone directly is now done using
$replica = clone $src;
Clone methods must now be declared as follows:
function __clone($that)
{
}
Clone methods in derived classes can call the __clone method of their parent
classes using parent::__clone($that)
internal non-static methods statically.
# As discussed with Zeev:
# - For BC standard userspace methods allow this with an E_STRICT message.
# - If you want to implement an internal method taht can be called both
# statically and non-statically then use flag ZEND_ACC_ALLOW_STATIC.
# - Magic user space methods __*() cannot and __construct, __destruct,
# __clone can never be called statically.
add E_STRICT warnings in case you return something by reference that you're
not supposed to (anything that's not a variable, or a return-value of a
function that returned by reference).
- Fix error in calculation of trace-string length
- Allow to overload __strostring() and make it work for uncaught exceptions
- Show exception thrown while displaying exceptions
